On April 11th- Kirk Herin, of Manson, became a State record holder for a Tiger Trout he caught in RosesLake in Manson.
The 15.04 pound fish weighed in more than a pound higher than the previous state record, held by Evan Roda, set in 2008 out of FishLake in SpokaneCounty.
Kirk tells KOZI that the catch came as a surprise- because he wasn’t out to catch the record Tiger Trout that day.
And, although this will be Kirk’s first official record fish in the books- he says this is not the first time he has had a record fish in his boat.
Once official, Kirk’s record Tiger Trout will be the second record holder from ChelanCounty- a 2001 record, held by John Hossack for a 35.44 pound Lake Trout came from Lake Chelan.
We have posted the picture of Kirk’s record breaking Tiger Trout on our website as well as our Facebook Page.
